The revival meetings that have been
IN progress at the Elkton M. E. Church

fessed conversion.
The Republican leaders of Kent
county, it is reported, will start a new
paper OF that faith at Chestertown in

Gov. Biggs, most always lucky, got

A Rare Fruit.-There grows on the
farm of Mr.. Todd, in the lower part
of Caroline county, a persimmon tree
which bears a seedless fruit as "sWeet
as raisin." This tree has been the
subject of much interest to fruit grow
ers, and experiments are being made to
perpetuate this freak of nature to sue
ceeding generations. There is a cause
for the change of the natural order of
growth, and lucky will be that person
who finds the cause, for there is no
telling what may result from cultiva-
ton, grating, etc.
